You need 3 to 4 years to be able to be independent in research
Summary
In my first year of medical school, before there was Internet, I came across a book in our medical school’s library written by an editor of the New Scientist Journal, and I can never remember the actual name nor have I been able to find it, but it was called something like “The Magic Bullet” saying that there are so many limitations with drugs and that we don’t fully understand what they’re really about and discusses the limitations of our knowledge This helped me appreciate Medicine with different eyes. We’re showing that, and showing that if you try to block or reverse some of these changes you can induce therapeutic effects This is a great contribution to clinical care. Having more large open label studies would be interesting as well
